Tag: Master Key

Fictional character Kevin Butler is the Sony PS3 spokesperson of sorts – which might lead you to believe that given Sony’s recent sue-a-thon against anyone even daring to mention the hallowed hex digits of the Master Key (Thanks, GeoHot!) – it could, and I’m not an expert, but it could, be a construed as a bad idea for whatever PR firm behind his twitter account (TheKevinButler) to re-tweet said hacked PS3 Master Key.

Which when used correctly will make a PS3 think it’s running legitimate, signed code as opposed to homebrew or warez.
